Book Description

This textbook covers calculus of a single variable, suitable for a year-long (or two-semester) course. Chapters 1-5 cover Calculus I, while Chapters 6-9 cover Calculus II. The book is designed for students who have completed courses in high-school algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.

Though designed for college students, it could also be used in high schools. The traditional topics are covered, but the old idea of an infinitesimal is resurrected, owing to its usefulness (especially in the sciences).

The goal of this textbook isn't to cover every possible topic from calculus, but to focus on the most essential skills needed to apply calculus to other subjects, such as physics or engineering.

• Vector Calculus (Michael Corral)

  This is a text on elementary multivariable calculus, designed for students who have completed courses in single-variable calculus. Concepts are amply illustrated with figures, worked examples, and physical applications.

• Calculus (Gilbert Strang)

  This highly regarded calculus textbook is ideal as for self-study. Examples of apps of calculus to physics, engineering and economics are included, as well as many practice questions and illustrative diagrams to assist the reader's grasp of the material.

• Applied Analysis (John K. Hunter, et al)

  This book provides an introduction to those parts of analysis that are most useful in applications for graduate students. The material is selected for use in applied problems, and is presented clearly and simply but without sacrificing mathematical rigor.

• Calculus: Theory and Applications (Kenneth Kuttler)

  This is a book on single variable calculus including most of the important applications of calculus. It also includes proofs of all theorems presented, either in the text itself, or in an appendix. It also contains an introduction to vectors and vector products.

• Advanced Calculus (Lynn H. Loomis, et al)

  Problem solving and mathematical modeling are introduced early and reinforced throughout, providing students with a solid foundation in the principles of mathematical thinking.

• Active Calculus (Matt Boelkins)

  Rather than detailed explanations and worked out examples, this book uses activities intended to be done by the students in order to present the standard concepts and computational techniques of calculus.

• Calculus (WikiBooks)

  This wikibook aims to be a high quality calculus textbook through which users can master the discipline. Standard topics such as limits, differentiation and integration are covered, as well as several others.

• Calculus Made Easy (Silvanus P. Thompson)

  This book is a popular math book to help modern readers of all levels understand the subject on calculus through simple way and explanation. It's not just theory-based but contains exercises and answers so you can practice the understanding for each chapter.

• Precalculus: An Investigation of Functions (David Lippman, et al)

  Comprehensive and evenly paced, this book provides complete coverage of the function concept, and integrates a significant amount of graphing calculator material to help students develop insight into mathematical ideas.

• Introduction to Mathematical Analysis (Beatriz Lafferriere, et al)

  The goal of this book is to provide students with a strong foundation in mathematical analysis. Such a foundation is crucial for future study of deeper topics of analysis. It will be reinforced through rigorous proofs.

• Elementary Calculus: An Infinitesimal Approach (H. Jerome Keisler)

  This first-year calculus book is centered around the use of infinitesimals. It contains all the ordinary calculus topics, including the basic concepts of the derivative, continuity, and the integral, plus traditional limit concepts and approximation problems.
